Dome Of The Rock

Regular price $35.00 $0.00
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Has 160 pages of nice color photos and text detailing the construction of the "Dome of the Rock" that sits atop the "Temple Mount" in Jerusalem. This Islamic structure was built atop the stone from whence the Muslim Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) climb a ladder into Paradise (Heaven), about 625 C.E. during his "Miraculous Night Journey" on his winged, flying-horse Buraq -- before returning to Mecca. Surprisingly, there a just a couple of photos of the Dome itself; not that many photos of the interior of the Dome, nor of the overall Temple Mount. It has a lot more information about other Islamic-Judaism history than about the Dome itself. Nowhere even near as good as "Dome of Rock" by S. Nuseibeh. You may also want to look at an archaeological analysis of the Temple Mount's buildings in L. Ritmeyer's "Secrets of Jerusalem's Temple Mount."
